The guys also recall Knight’s volatility and unique character traits that made him truly one-of-one in the purest definition of the phrase.Central Michigan’s lack of definitive comment regarding this week’s reporting that a figure resembling Conor Stalions was spotted on their sideline has led the crew to decide that Stalions was indeed stealing signs from Michigan State early in the year. The investigation continues for Michigan and Stalions, but the more that Dan, Pat & Ross learn about it, the more they have to conclude that no college coach would ever be on board with Stalions’ brash espionage tactics.The Big Ten held a coaches phone conference with commissioner Tony Petitti this week.

Race for the Case week 9: Florida vs. Georgia, Louisville vs. Duke & the Michigan manifesto
Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI’s Pat Forde pick the biggest Week 9 college football games against the spread in this week’s edition of Race for the Case.The slow drip of news from the Michigan sign-stealing scandal has been endlessly entertaining as more details continue to emerge about Connor Stalions and the scouting operation that he had going for Michigan. The largest questions still remain unanswered as we don’t yet know Jim Harbaugh’s involvement or how the initial tip-off was achieved. It seems like Harbaugh could be heading to the NFL if he had any involvement with the scandal, but the real penalty from this investigation is reputational. Michigan will be able to find another quality coach, but this scandal could brand the program as ‘cheaters’ for some time.Moving onto this weekend’s games, it isn’t the strongest slate of games for Week 9, but many matchups have a high interest level from the crew including Kansas vs. Oklahoma, Clemson vs. NC State & Ohio State vs. Wisconsin.In news of the weird, 2 million dimes were stolen from a truck & the Florida Man games will begin this February.To close out the podcast, the guys give their picks against the spread for the #1 ranked Georgia Bulldogs at the Florida Gators, the #8 ranked Oregon Ducks visiting the #13 ranked Utah Utes, the #20 ranked Duke Blue Devils traveling to the #18 ranked Louisville Cardinals, the Mississippi State Bulldogs at the Auburn Tigers, the Colorado Buffaloes taking on the #23 ranked UCLA Bruins, and as always, Dan, Ross & Pat give their locks of the week.1:00 - Michigan sign-stealing scandal continues to develop26:08 - Most interesting games of the week44:05 - 2 million dimes were stolen from a tractor trailer49:04 - Florida group is holding a ‘Florida Man’ competition51:05 - #1 Georgia @ Florida52:50 - #8 Oregon @ #13 Utah55:12 - #20 Duke @ #18 Louisville56:25 - Mississippi State @ Auburn58:43 - Colorado @ #23 UCLA60:46 - Lock of the WeekFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger🖥️ Watch this full episode on YouTubeCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI’s Pat Forde continue to dive into the latest details surrounding Connor Stalions’ involvement in the Michigan sign-stealing investigation.Ticket records for Connor Stalions have been brought to light and Michigan has been branded as ‘cheaters’ until further notice by the general college football public. The guys speculate how high up the reported signs went, who knew about them and what the eventual punishment for Michigan will be if the program is found to be guilty of breaking the rules.Quinn Ewers suffered an injury last week, making him a week-to-week decision to start at quarterback for Texas. We will have an opportunity to see the depth of the Longhorn signal-callers as both Arch Manning and Maalik Murphy have been getting first team reps this week and may see action this Saturday at home against BYU.Utah continues to impose their will on other members of the Pac-12 and the Utes are hoping to continue that trend against Oregon this weekend. The crew finds it fitting that in the last year of the Pac-12, the Utes have stayed on brand as the meat-grinder of the conference.The guys turn their focus to the latest from this summer’s wave of announced conference realignment maneuvers. Oregon State and Washington State are continuing to fight for Pac-12 assets that will remain once conference deserters UCLA, USC, Washington and Oregon have left. Additionally, the Big 12 could be looking to bolster their already great basketball league with the addition of Gonzaga.The crew discusses how Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman was able to turn the tables on a reporter, who coaches his son in flag football, in his latest press conference.Lastly, the podcast takes a deep dive into the latest potential Bigfoot sighting captured on video from a train in Wyoming.1:00 - Latest on Connor Stalions’ sign-stealing operation at Michigan33:34 - Who will start at QB for Texas this week?36:46 - Utah continues to spoil seasons in the Pac-1242:07 - Colorado is facing off against UCLA this weekend43:22 - Latest in conference realignment50:29 - Marcus Freeman flips the script on reporter54:32 - Newest potential Bigfoot sightingFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger🖥️ Watch this full episode on YouTubeCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI’s Pat Forde break down this weekend’s biggest games, upsets & news coming out of Week 8 in the college football season.Ohio State came out on top over Penn State in a highly anticipated Big Ten matchup. The crew questions whether James Franklin will ever be able to win the big game when it matters most. Meanwhile, Ohio State’s defense shined in this win making Penn State’s offense look disjointed and shaky.The Utah Utes took care of business by taking down USC in a big Pac-12 matchup. Lincoln Riley’s team is now effectively removed from College Football Playoff contention and the situation leaves USC fans wondering what could have been this season. With a pending move to the Big Ten, the guys suggest that Lincoln Riley needs to build a tougher team for the much tougher conference.Alabama and Nick Saban proved that they are still alive this year after crushing Tennessee at home. Great coaches find a way to win the tough games, and Saban showed that in the second half after trailing the Volunteers in the first.Michigan taking on Michigan State was a wild one. Aside from the 49-0 rout that Michigan delivered, the fan antics and scoreboard graphics provided a confusing environment. The Michigan sign stealing investigation has also progressed. Dan gives his theory as to what really took place with the alleged sign stealing and tries to provide some clarity to those still puzzled about what reporting the news actually entails.Iowa took a tough loss this week as a a punt return touchdown late in the 4th quarter was overturned after officials ruled a fair catch was signaled prior to the return.There may be hope for Mario Cristobal yet as Miami took a win over Dabo Swinney’s Clemson team. The Hurricanes will try to build off this momentum for the rest of the season heading into 2024.To close out the podcast, the guys provide their Small Sample Heisman candidates & play a around of Say Something Nice.1:00 - Ohio State beats Penn State15:00 - USC falls to Utah27:31 - Michigan State’s tough night33:55 - Michigan’s sign stealing investigation update52:10 - Iowa loses on overturned punt return touchdown58:10 - Clemson falls to Miami1:01:35 - Small Sample Heisman1:07:18 - Say Something NiceFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger🖥️ Watch this full episode on YouTubeCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

Michigan under investigation for alleged cheating & Race for the Case Week 8
Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI’s Pat Forde kick off the podcast detailing new allegations around Jim Harbaugh in Michigan football, in which the NCAA is investigating the team illegally sending advance scouts to steal signs and gain other competitive advantages.Dan & Ross broke today’s blockbuster news, and while there are no rules against stealing signs in-game, there are rules about in-person scouting and sign stealing using electronic transmissions. The podcast reacts to the news and how this could add a cloud to Michigan’s current football season and stain seasons past. Pat wonders whether or not Michigan are high frequency cheaters or just really bad at getting away with it. While the narrative of the season has definitely changed for Michigan, the guys debate what the next move for Jim Harbaugh is if this investigation is proven to be accurate.Moving away from the Michigan scandal, Week 8 has some interesting games to keep an eye on. There is a big MAC matchup between Toledo & Miami of Ohio, Minnesota and Iowa are squaring off in an expected low-scoring affair & we get the Hugh Freeze bowl in a matchup between Auburn and Ole Miss.Meanwhile in Oklahoma, Tulsa is trying to break the world record for the world’s largest beer tasting event ahead of their game vs Rice.

Penn State vs. Ohio State preview, Brock Bowers injury & possible collective bargaining for student athletes
Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI’s Pat Forde take a look into this weekend’s most interesting game between Big Ten rivals Ohio State and Penn State before diving into a bevy of other college football news.Both Ryan Day and James Franklin need a win this weekend to keep their playoff hopes alive but the guys question which coach needs it more. James Franklin has yet to get his signature win at Penn State and beating Ohio State this year could give him just that. Ryan Day has been feeling the pressure after dropping two in a row to Michigan, and a loss to Penn State could put him on the hot seat for the Buckeye faithful.We get a rematch of one of last season’s craziest games on Saturday when Tennessee squares off with Alabama again. The tone of this game is different as neither team is equipped for another high-scoring affair, so the winning team needs do it in the trenches. The expectations for Alabama are significantly higher than Tennessee’s right now, so Nick Saban doesn’t want to lose two-in-a-row to the Volunteers.Georgia’s star tight end for Brock Bowers was injured in last week’s game against Vanderbilt. Bowers is expected to undergo ankle surgery in hopes to return to the team before the College Football Playoff.South Carolina coach Shane Beamer had an injury of his own this past weekend after kicking something that he shouldn’t have after losing a tight game to Florida and breaking a bone in his foot.The guys turn their focus to Dabo Swinney, who spoke out about the expectations that are put on the Clemson football team. Swinney doesn’t like that the perception that teams are losers if they’re not undefeated and hopes that a down-year can lighten up the Clemson bandwagon. After many successful seasons at Clemson, Dabo’s biggest problem seems to be that he was too successful in years past.The 10th Congressional NIL hearing took place on Tuesday and the guys tracked it intently. Ross was in attendance and got to report on the theatrics, as well as have a conversation with Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick, who believes that collective bargaining for student athletes may be coming sooner than we speak. The crew debates the pros and cons of having student athletes be considered employees and why this matter has even been elevated to the halls of congress.To close out the podcast, the world now has a new record for the spiciest pepper, as a report came out detailing the process of creating ‘Pepper X’ & the potentially dangerous aftermath of consuming it.1:00 - Big Ten is back with Penn State vs. Ohio State20:54 - Tennessee vs. Alabama27:20 - Brock Bowers is out 4-6 weeks with ankle surgery32:32 - Shane Beamer’s broken foot34:25 - Dabo Swinney doesn’t appreciate the lofty expectations for Clemson football37:40 - 10th Congressional NIL hearing took place Tuesday in Washington, DC1:05:40 - New world record for hottest pepperFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger🖥️ Watch this full episode on YouTubeCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

Week 7 overreaction: USC falls to Notre Dame, Washington beats Oregon & the Hawkeye train is rolling
Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI’s Pat Forde react to all of the major games that took place this weekend in college football as quite a handful of ranked teams suffered a loss on Saturday.The Washington Huskies took home a win in a game-of-the-year candidate against the Oregon Ducks. With all of the high-powered offensive fireworks, along with the in-conference rivalry, there was a lot to break down from the matchup. Dan Lanning’s decision-making on 4th downs confused the guys as his system has not worked well enough in close games against good opponents and a key turnover on downs gave the Washington offense a short field in the eventual game-winning drive.Marcus Freeman’s system worked against USC as the Fighting Irish took down the Trojans 48-20. USC was a mess in this game and Notre Dame took advantage of it by consistently turning over Caleb Williams and executing on special teams.The cream is starting to rise a bit in the SEC as Tennessee staved off Texas A&M, Alabama beat Arkansas, & Missouri took down Kentucky.The Colorado Buffaloes had a tough one on Friday night as they lost to Stanford after leading by as much as 29 points in the game. The guys determine that this is a loss where things could falls apart for the Buffs and that Coach Deion Sanders needs to get past this as soon as possible or Colorado could miss bowl season.The Iowa Hawkeyes went on the road and beat Wisconsin with punting, defense and 2 catches from wide receivers. Kirk Ferentz is simultaneously on the hottest and coldest seats in college football thanks to his 6-1 record, yet having an offense so bad that it could squander a championship-caliber defense.To the guys’ dismay, Grazer won Fat Bear Week with a record setting performance over runner-up Chunk.To close out the podcast, the guys give out their Small Sample Heisman candidates & play a round of Say Something Nice.1:00 - Washington takes down Oregon 36-3321:10 - Notre Dame stomps USC 48-2029:25 - Around the SEC: Tennessee beats Texas A&M, Alabama holds off Arkansas39:41 - Colorado blows a 29-point lead at home against Stanford45:32 - Iowa Hawkeyes are rolling, defeat Wisconsin51:07 - Fat Bear Week Championship51:38 - Small Sample Heisman54:38 - Say Something NiceFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger🖥️ Watch this full episode on YouTubeCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts
